SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!

Place your vWagers here

The Fifth of November

Remember, remember!
The fifth of November,
The Rebuilding Season and plot;
I know of no reason
Why the Rebuilding Season
Should ever be forgot!
Jay Feaster and his companions
Did the scheme contrive,
To blow the Flames
All up alive.
Threescore periods, laid below,
To prove old Sutter's overthrow.
But, by Sven's providence, him they catch,
With a dark lantern, lighting a match!
A stick and a skate
For Sean Monahan's sake!
If you won't give me one goal,
I'll take two,
The better for me,
And the worse for you.
A blocked shot to lay down the Gio,
The Dome at Pengrowth, the scene of the hero,
A pint of heroin beer to wash it down,
And a jolly blast of fire to celebrate them.
Holloa, boys! holloa, boys! Make the Wild feel shame!
Holloa, boys! holloa boys! God save the Flames!
Hip, hip, hooor-r-r-ray!

Is it just me or have a lot of games in Minny in the last few years felt like we were cruising to a victory only to have some stupid mistakes let us down? Maybe I'm thinking of somewhere else...............:help:

Boo-Boo's was a great touch. And that pic-in-ic basket line is groan worthy. :laugh:

You are welcome for both!



and Stew, if you want a Wild logo like the hawks one I will quickly throw one together when I get home from work but it won't be until about 4:30pm before I get there.

Historically, games between the Flames and Wild have been incredibly dull. If the guys can put in any fraction of the effort they've had this season, it might not be a boring game at all.

Happy to say I probably won't watch this game, Minnesota has more exciting players but the system they play is an absolute snoozefest.

Great job on the GDT!

Will be cheering the Flames on from the gym. GFG!

Snoozefest upcoming. Oh well, I'll probably still watch.

Hopefully Berra can show that last game wasn't a flash in the pan. Historically, the Flames have had some good luck in Minnesota, but that was when Jarome was lighting them up like a Christmas tree. Maybe Sven can find the spark where he scored his first NHL goal. :)

It's funny, because when I was making the GDT's I was looking forward to a Minnesota game so I could post that clip. Or maybe there's a compilation video somewhere with Sven, Brodie, Cundari, Hanowski and everyone else scoring their first NHL goal against Minnsota.

Sorry little OT but how is Markus Granlund doing in the minors? It would be fun if could go against his brother. You think he is gonna get a shot this season?

You are pretty big snooze fest DBU. :sarcasm: . Seriously though, they should just add another win to the column. :yo:

It will be hard to do that in the press box, Bouma in and Sven is out.

What type of system do they play this season that causes the snoozefests?

Sven a healthy scratch makes me super pissed.

Im hoping Backlund takes his spot on the 2nd(?) Line.

We need to trade away Tim Jackman, he is as useless as a bag of sticks. Doesnt fight, doesnt score, doesnt hit. Just terrible.

Since when are sticks useless?
